Keyloids occur due to an overproduction of collagen during the healing process after skin injuries, such as cuts, burns, or surgical scars. This excessive collagen leads to thick, raised scars that extend beyond the original wound area. Genetic factors play a significant role in their development, as some individuals are more predisposed to keloid formation than others. Additionally, certain skin types and ethnic backgrounds may have a higher incidence of keloids.
